It had been a little over a week since the incident between Castiel and Dean and neither boys had said little over a word to one another. Each time they passed each other in the halls, Castiel would blush furiously and bring his hand up to his neck, trying to shield the faint reminder of the mark that Dean had left.

Dean always pretended that he hadn't noticed Castiel and carried on walking, glancing back over his shoulder occasionally and sighing as Cas walked away.

Today was no exception…

Tomorrow Dean thought to himself. I'll talk to him tomorrow, he promised. He hoisted his bag further up on his shoulder and walked out of the double doors, letting them slam shut behind him.

Dean pulled his hood up against the rain as he walked outside and jogged over towards his car. He dug around in his pocket and pulled out the keys, unlocking the door and then climbing in. "Oh come on," Dean yelled as he tried - without much success, to get the car started. He turned the key in the engine and slumped back in his chair. "Dammit," He sighed and closed his eyes.

"Car trouble?" a familiar voice rang through his ears and he shot open his eyes, glancing over towards the passenger window.

"Oh hey Gabriel," Dean mumbled.

Gabriel shivered against the cold rain and pulled open Dean's car door with a loud creak. He settled down in the passenger seat and tousled his hair, water droplets flying everywhere. "Hey," he smiled.

Dean raised his eyebrows at Gabriel's actions but didn't move to say anything. He let his head fall back against the chair once again.

Gabriel cleared his throat. "I know what you and Cas did," he mumbled, fumbling about with his hands.

"Oh yeah," Dean replied, his voice was calm but his heart was pounding so hard he thought it might burst out of his ribcage. "And what would that be?" he added, trying to calm himself down.

Gabriel ran yet another shaky hand through his damp hair. "You er…" Gabe mumbled nervously. "You kissed him."

"I don't know what you're talking about Gabe," Dean defended himself.

Gabriel rolled his eyes. "Cut this shit Dean," he snapped. "It's so obvious a blind man could see it."

Dean sighed and slumped further back into his chair. "How did you figure it out?" he mumbled.

Gabriel shrugged. "Wasn't hard to work it out really," he grinned. "It was pretty obvious when Cas walked out with his hair in a mess, his shirt half way up his hip and not to mention the rather large hickey on his neck."

Dean stared back at Gabriel eyes wide and mouth hanging open. Gabriel just chuckled in return. "Yeah… and he hasn't shut up about you," he said, regretting the words as soon as they left his mouth.

"Really?" Dean snapped his head up further as Gabriel spoke. "What did he say?"

Gabriel frzoe, pondering whther or not to tell Dean.

"Gabriel tell me."

"Just, y'know… the usual stuff," Gabe shrugged.

"You're lying Gabe, why won't you tell me?"

"Because I promised Cas I wouldn't," Gabriel yelled.

Dean flinched at the sudden anger in Gabriel's tone. "Alright dude, calm down," he said.

Gabriel growled at Dean's words and the arrogance that they held. "God you really don't have any idea do you?"

"About what?" Dean asked, arching an eyebrow.

"About how arrogant you are," Gabriel yelled and curled his fists against his palms.

"Excuse me?"

"You heard me," Gabriel spat. "You're so fucking arrogant Dean. Everything's always me, me, me with you. You don't give two shits about anybody else. As long as you're happy, nobody else matters." Gabriel uncurled his fingers from his palms and folded them across his chest.

Dean shook his head and sighed to himself. "Why does everybody think that about me? I'm not like that!"

"Well maybe if you tried giving two fucks about somebody other than yourself," Gabriel retorted.

"You remind me of him," Dean whispered and then smiled fondly. "Cas I mean."

Gabriel raised his eyebrows. "I hope you don't try and shove your tongue down my throat," he smirked. "Seriously, you're not my type."

Both boys sat in silence for a few minutes before Gabriel sighed and broke it. "Talk to him Dean, he hasn't been the same since you kissed him."

Dean nodded his head. "I was going to," he frowned. "Tomorrow…"

"Well make sure you do, I don't like seeing Cas hurt," Gabriel frowned.

Dean nodded his head.

Gabriel sighed. "Well, I guess I should be going," he said, pulling open the door. "Good luck with your car trouble."

Dean nodded his thanks towards Gabriel and watched him hurry out of the parking lot, holding his jacket over his head and shielding him from the rain.

"Come on baby," he whispered as he turned the key in the engine again. "Yes!" Dean grinned as the engine started up. He put her into gear and drove out of the parking lot.

Tomorrow, he thought to himself as he drove home. I'll do it tomorrow…
